    You shouldn’t be allowed to lose when 34/10 up in the 1st half, but well done Chiefs, after a diabolical 1st half, they really came back in the second

  • 214

    @ superBul:
    …and they are starting to look the part too…

  • 215

    Sensational!
    Worthy champions, the Mooloo boys are…well done!

  • 216

    Fantastic match
    Chiefs dug deep, Cheetahs played brilliantly in the first half. And no GSP for anyone, guaranteed.

  • 217

    Another draw for Chiefs and another 3 points. Hell how did the Cheetahs let this slip.Chiefs will be pleased to take 6 points away from the saffa tour. Just not good enough fromour sides to have big leads against the kiwi sides and let them back in like that.

    Congrats to both teams.

    @ Gumboots:
    Unbelievable, game these guys play.
    Only hope now is that they peaked too early

    Respect Chiefs
    Congrats

    Well done Chiefs… not many teams can pull off a draw after looking down and out…

    Cheetahs went to sleep – same as the Bulls last week…

    And the fact is they only need one half to beat Saffas

    Van Aswegen has missed 3 conventions so far
    WP 15- Simba Tuskers 15

  • 224

    Well, Gummy, thats us at the bottom for the moment, lets hope it is just very temporary!

  • 225

    What a Chiefs comeback… and not giving up hope for a second, even after the hooter had gone!

    Conversions not conventions, although maybe they should hold an intervention for him

    Kia Ora! Nothing wrong with the ref boet – time for a visit to the opti I say 😆

  • 232

    HM must be getting worried by now.
    It’s clear the Kiwi players are much fitter than ours and that makes all the difference in the last 20 minutes

  • 233

    Oh dear such a pity for the Cheetahs, must be a very good team this Chiefs one to have done this two weeks in a row away from home.

  • 234

    One thing about the kiwi sides they play for the full 80 min and have all the patience to back themself to come back. Teams like that will always be champs.

  • 235

    @ Gumboots:

    kei te pehea koe?

    just got in from work Gummy, got to see the last try only..

    but I have my doubts bro lol

  • 236

    Die twee draws wys nou maar net weer dat ons ver agter NZ is met skills, fiksheid, wedstrydplanne, guts, en wat ook nogal.

    Laat NZ maar al die bekers wen, want ons manage mos maar ons spelers om elke 4de jaar te peak… En dan wen ons nie eers die WB nie.

    Craig is an honorary Kiwi boet, have you forgotten that nice piece of farm land you gave him after the 2011 final?
    He even refs in a black pair of undies with a fern strategically placed on a sensitive area

    @ nga puhi:
